Instead, we had a President who supported Stalin and gave communism carte blanche in this country.
You seem unaware of that.
I am aware of that falsehood.
You clearly prefer that more Americans died in Europe- or perhaps that the Germans conquered all of Europe- rather than making an ally of convenience with the Soviet Union.
And FDR never gave 'carte blanche' to communism in the U.S.- just an idiotic claim.
You're clearly a fool.
1. I provided a sourced post supporting my contentions.
2. The aims of the CPUSA circa 1955 are almost identical to those of the current Democrat Party.
Yours is the response so typical of the government school grad.
And, no doubt, a reliable Democrat voter.
You're clearly a tool.
You have provided a bunch of stuff.
And your biased opinion.
If FDR had not aided the Soviets in 1941, it is more than likely either we never invaded Western Europe and the Third Reich continues until we start dropping atomic bombs on it- or they on us- or if we did invade, we lose thousands of more troops.
Your attempt at revisionist history is well noted.
Funny that you refer to 'revisionist history' when all you have is "it is more than likely."
Dunce, go back and read about the battle of Stalingrad, and Kursk.
Never a surprise, when the truth about FDR/Stalin/ communism is produced, you low-lives resort to claims that the one providing the truth wanted American soldiers dead.
Especially in light of the fact that Roosevelt extended the war by over two years, resulting in the commensurate deaths of Americans.
LOL- Roosevelt extended the war by 'over two years'? Seriously.....so you think that Roosevelt could have ended the War in Europe by May 1943? A year and a half after the United States entered the war?
Well that is a whopper.
I have read far more about the Battle of Stalingrad and Kursk than you are likely to ever stumble across.
How do you think the Soviets managed to move all of those tanks to Kursk?
American locomotives.
And that is not a slight on the brave Russians who fought- but American Lend Lease kept the Soviet Union alive while it ramped up production on T-34's and KV's- and supplied the trucks they used- and most importantly of all the rolling stock that moved the equipment from the factories to the front.
The USSR was highly dependent on rail transportation, but the war practically shut down rail equipment production: only about 92 locomotives were produced. 2,000 locomotives and 11,000 railcars were supplied under Lend-Lease. Likewise, the Soviet air force received 18,700 aircraft, which amounted to about 14% of Soviet aircraft production (19% for military aircraft).[19]
Although most Red Army tank units were equipped with Soviet-built tanks, their logistical support was provided by hundreds of thousands of U.S.-made trucks. Indeed by 1945 nearly two-thirds of the truck strength of the Red Army was U.S.-built. Trucks such as the Dodge 3/4 ton andStudebaker 2½ ton were easily the best trucks available in their class on either side on the Eastern Front. American shipments of telephone cable, aluminum, canned rations, and clothing were also critical.[20]
The Western Allies recognized that the USSR was vital to be fighting against the Nazi's.
You just want to do some Monday morning quarterbacking on how you think they should have done it- 60 years ago.
"LOL- Roosevelt extended the war by 'over two years'? Seriously..."
That' right, dolt.
Stalin told him to refuse to allow communication with the anti-Nazi German resistance, and that's exactly what happened.
What was the effect of
Stalin's demand that no surrender by Germany be allowed?
1. First,
the Allied command was not allowed to support or associate itself with the anti-Nazi resistance. Following the Soviet orders, only unconditional surrender would be considered....an order which prolonged the war by as much as a year: the army which would have overthrown Hitler and surrendered to the Allies would not be allowed to expect any hand in determining conditions of their post-war treatment.
a. "A SHAEF (Supreme Headquarters, Allied Expeditionary Force)
directive prohibited activities aimed at promoting German revolt against the Nazi regime.
The Allied doctrine of unconditional surrender meant that "... those Germans — and particularly those German generals — who might have been ready to throw Hitler over, and were able to do so, were discouraged from making the attempt by their inability to extract from the Allies any sort of assurance that such action would improve the treatment meted out to their country."
German Resistance to Nazism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2. The only national resistance not supported by the Allies under FDR was that of Germany....as per Stalin's instructions.
On May 10, 1945, shortly after the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany, General Dwight
Eisenhower saluted and gave credit to Europe's resistance forces. He mentioned them by name,as follows: France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Norway. 'You fought on,' he said in a speech carried by the BBC, "regardless of the disappointments you suffered and the danger you have undergone."
NYTimes, May 11, 1945, "Eisenhower Praises Anti-Nazi Resistance."
a. Who is missing from Eisenhower's list of national anti-Nazi resistance?
That's right: German anti-Nazis, of whom
thousands were executed by the Reich.
"The History of the German Resistance, 1933-1945, Third Edition," by Peter Hoffman
Think it was an oversight on his part.....or was he just following orders?
Now...who could possibly give Supreme Commander orders?
Who?
3. Need more proof that you're a moron?
Sure.
